Testimonials for our College Admissions & Career Coaching Services

"Kris has been a great help to my daughters, both for college essays and resumes. It's invaluable to have a third party adult in the mix, especially someone with Kris' psychological insights. She understands how stressful it can be to be engaged in the college application and job search task, both for the parents and the child. I know she really cares about the students she coaches and has their best interests at heart."

I have been so impressed with Kris’ ability to help my son, a college freshman, translate his maturity, drive, persistence, and academic and extracurricular pursuits to paper. She has helped him develop a engaging cover letter and resume for summer internships. He is already being interviewed for positions directly in his field and he feels more confident than ever before. I recommend Kris Hintz without reservation.

Kris helped my daughter develop a resume and essay that contributed to her acceptance in competitive summer programs. My daughter is a talented writer, but Kris was able to help her focus on the key points to communicate. Through her intuition, creativity and marketing background, Kris can translate students' aspirations into realistic goals and help them persuasively present their unique potential.

Kris was invaluable in creating an extensive and well researched list of colleges that satisfied our son's academic and career goals, balancing realistic expectations, with a sprinkling of schools that might offer an unexpected fit. Her dedication and enjoyment in the process of finding the right match, was obvious in the time, effort and follow up she provided during this fretful period. As parents, she was helpful in alleviating some of the stress and challenges of reminding and nagging our ever-procrastinating son, to complete the series of steps required for the applications. Happily, our son was accepted to the school of his choice, and we are very thankful to Kris for all of her help and guidance.

"Kris' insight, experience and genuine concern for my success were apparent throughout her valuable contributions to my college and job applications processes. In each, she helped me to articulate my candidacy's strength clearly and compellingly and, beyond her marketing talents, her patience and positivity have been vital sources of calm during the straining moments of these chapters. Thank you again for all of your help, Kris! "

“Kris was absolutely invaluable during my business school search, application, and selection process. Throughout the process, she refused to sugarcoat her thoughts, and always expressed an opinion, which I found very helpful. She was irreplaceable while writing my essays; her suggestions and criticisms were insightful and useful. I highly recommend her to anybody who feels at all overwhelmed by their application process.”

“Kris is personable, creative, and an expert in career coaching and positioning strategy. She started with exploration and identification of key interests and strengths, and extracted potential careers and industries. Whenever possible, she reminded me to look at the big picture, to analyze the long-term goal, and to make sure that each step along the way was working towards it. Additionally, she has helped me position and market my combination of talents and competencies. Her background in psychology, career counseling, and marketing directly translate to her services. I cannot recommend her services highly enough, especially in a tough job market where polish and networking are essential.”
